Super Vic not cut for O-rings, sealer or felpro? The Felpro are a week out. What would the harm be in using a high quality silicone and setting the intake on, letting it dry then torqueing the bolts down?
Some say not to in a boosted application but it seems like a better seal than the O-rings as there is more "bond".
Thoughts?

Ultimately if the two surfaces are flat, and the manifold sits perfectly flush, then no reason a good quality sealer wont work perfectly.
I just used sealer for my elbow to manifold, and when it ever comes apart it needs serious effort to get apart.
I used more of a 3-bond type grey sealer though as opposed to silicone, it sticks like ****. But I'm sure a good quality silicone will be fine too
